Betty and Rodney have a rendezvous. Eddie cracks Norman's rib.
WA: Norman Harrington is fighting the most critical battle of his
young life. A war for the affection of his wife, Rita. Though
Rita has assured him again and again that her feelings for her
father, Eddie Jacks, are separate from her feelings for him,
Norman still demands 100 per cent of her love. Now, Norman has
received as urgent message to meet Rita's father on the wharf.
A message he wants desperately to ignore.

it. The competency hearing will be tomorrow. Steven tells her

Preview: Rita talks to Dr. Rossi. Peyton shouts at Steven in court.
RH: Its just that sometimes I wonder if I'm ever really going
to have this baby. And if I do, I ...
MR: You'll what?
RH: Even if the baby makes it, I wonder if I'm going to
be around.
MP: Look to yourself, Steven Cord.
JJ: Mr. Peyton.
MP: Those are the folly of your own life. Then cast the
first stone. Do you have an answer? Or are you too
busy trying to get your hands on my money with this
circus.
Rodney and Betty kiss.
Mr. Sloan-[Your reviewer was unable to determine who this Mr. Sloan was.
We suppose that it could be John Fowler's brother-in-law by marriage
but there is no tie-in of any sort to substantiate this.]
